New to arrive in Canton: the game-worn sideline gear of @Browns ST coordinator Mike Priefer. Items were used during the Browns’ Wild Card Round playoff game on 1/10/21. Priefer became the 1st acting head coach in @NFL history to win a playoff game.

If it wasn’t bad enough that the Cleveland Browns embarrassed the Pittsburgh Steelers in the playoffs last season, here’s a little insult to injury. Browns special teams coordinator Mike Priefer, who filled in at head coach for Kevin Stefanski, had the gear he wore that day put in the Pro Football Hall of Fame.

The reason for the accolades is it was the first time an acting head coach had ever won a playoff game. Stefanski was not allowed to travel with the Browns to Pittsburgh due to being on the Reserve/COVID-19 list.

Priefer getting his stuff put in the HOF for leading Cleveland to a blowout win over Pittsburgh really puts a bow on an embarrassing season by the Steelers. After starting the season 11-0, Pittsburgh backed into the playoffs going 1-4 prior to losing big to the Browns.
